Getting a little personal today...

I like to keep my private life private, but I will share today because it is so special to me and I want everyone to enjoy. I don't have a large extended family for what ever reason, but when I was younger I got to hang out with my older brother Lenny and my cousin Travis who was 2 weeks younger than I was. We weren't allowed to play with my younger brother Chris because we always abused him and he always went in hurt so he had to watch all the fun from the screen door... =) So Travis and I grew up fighting and cursing like we were siblings... in fact, he was always a brother to me. As we got older and started families of our own of course we grew apart, but when we came together it was as if we started off where we left off without missing a beat... I guess that is where the bond is so special.
So Travis and Christy decided it was time for kids (only 12 years after marriage) =) With multiple complications in her pregnancy baby Aaron decided to make his debut at only 28 weeks, but wow what a fighter he is! He is doing remarkably well for a baby born that young.
Travis and I continue to have milestones together, he is having his first baby and my first baby is graduating high school... what a great experience for both of us.
I have posted pictures below of a portion of our hearts.... his #1 mile marker and and my #18 mile marker. I know that Baby Aaron and my Baby Savannah will be amazing people and I continue to pray for their milestones to be blessed beyond words.
The only thing I wish baby Aaron could experience is growing up with great kids to get into trouble with like we did... and oh did we ever get into trouble allllll of the time! =)
Congratulations Travis and Christy and good luck on beginning your parenting life!





Savannah's senior picnic... oh how she has grown up to be a beautiful, neurotic, lovely, amazingly sweet girl that stole my heart upon her first breath and continues to do so with every breath she takes. I love you Nannerpants... you are such a blessing to me and I couldn't imagine my life without you in it! =)



Hopefully I won't wait so long to blog next time...
